I’ve been getting emails and phone calls asking if/when I’ll have the GEC 93 Oily Creek knives available. They’ve been showing up on Ebay and storefronts for several days now. I talked to GEC yesterday and again this morning. GEC ran the first batch and sent them out to several dealers who obviously put them…
GEC 93’s and Fossils
The first release of the GEC 93’s came in over the weekend and sold out in a flash. I have no doubt all iterations of the GEC 93’s will be a hit. If you were a fan of the #47 Viper that came out a few years ago, you’ll definitely like the 93. It’s a…
GEC 93’s Coming Next Week
For a number of reasons, I won’t be putting any of the new GEC 93’s up until Monday next week. GEC hasn’t shipped my order yet, I had a computer upgrade this week (as the result of a computer meltdown) and I’m going on a trip fossil hunting with friends this weekend. As a way…
Chris On Indefinite LOA
I was sad to read the post on the GEC website regarding Chris being on an “Indefinite leave of absence”. Having read and reread the post, I’m left believing the absence may be permanent. REALLY sorry to hear that. In the time GEC has been in existence Chris became the face and voice of Great…

More new / old stock
Couple of weeks ago I finished doing some trading for some new / old stock and ended up with a few really nice pieces. I’ve been adding them to inventory as time allowed and thought I’d share a gem with you on the blog. This is a very rare 661312 with Natural Stag handles. Not…
Flexx Strop Kit
I came across a really cool tool to add to the kit last week in the form of the Flexx Strop Kit. Keeping a sharp knife is a bit of a passion with me and I’m always looking for a way to stay ahead of things. In the past I’ve made strops out of paint…
Special Orders
Every now and then someone asks me a question I assume everyone knows the answer to. Do I take special orders. Short answer is yes. I’m not talking about Early Orders for GEC knives. What I’m referring to are special orders for products I don’t carry in the store. It might be for a product…
